On September 12,2006, ORISE received a request to reanalyze the vegetation samples from Lents Cove for Ni-63. The sample was reanalyzed in triplicate. The sample identification and collection data for this sample addressed in this report are presented in Table 1. The Ni-63 data are provided in Table 2. The pertinent procedure references are provided in each specific table.
